The 36-year-old frontwoman of Florence and The Machine took to Instagram to reveal her personal journey over the past few days. After experiencing health challenges that prompted her to cancel several concerts, Welch revealed that she underwent a life-saving surgical procedure that marked a turning point in her physical well-being.
In her heartfelt statement, she expressed regret for canceling the show, noting that she did not feel “strong enough” to go into detail about the medical emergency. He acknowledged the disappointment and anxiety caused by his cancellation but promised to return to close the tour.
“‘I am deeply sorry that I have had to cancel the last few shows,” Welch wrote in the statement. “My leg is fine, I had to have emergency surgery because I wasn’t strong enough for it yet, but it saved my life.”
“… And I’ll be back to close the Dance Fever tour in Lisbon and Malaga (maybe not jump that much, but you can do it for me),” he added.

As he continued his statement, the “You’ve Got The Love” hitmaker revealed a complex mix of emotions, including a sense of responsibility for the ordeal while lamenting the seemingly “prophetic” nature of his lyrics.
“Suffice it to say, I hope the songs are less accurate in their predictions. But creativity is a way to cope, mythology is a way to make sense,” Welch shared.
“And Dave Fever’s dark fable, with all its strange predictions, will give me the strength and catharsis I so desperately need right now,” he added.

Welch previously explained the health issues that caused him to cancel a highly anticipated show at the O2 Arena in London last November. The singer’s health issues came into focus once again as he had to cancel his performance to take care of his leg.
“I’m very sorry to say that after the X-rays, it looks like I danced with a broken leg last night,” Welch said at the time.
“It’s not in my nature to postpone a show, and certainly not a UK tour, but I was in pain, and as any dancer knows, dancing in pain is not a good idea. And have been told not to perform to avoid further damage,” he continued.

“Please wait for your ticket,” added the singer. “We are making every effort to reschedule this date for next year, and we will let you know as soon as possible.”

“I love you so much, and I’m sorry to anyone who was disappointed. My heart hurts. I can’t wait to get back on my feet and back in your arms,” the singer concluded the post.
